Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Live Edge Epoxy Table

Want a stunning, one-of-a-kind conversation piece? A live edge epoxy table is a wonderful way to add natural artistry to your home and here’s how…

First things first. So, visit M & M Enterprises to pick up what you need for your live edge project, including a gorgeous live edge slab and certified food grade, UV-resistant, self-leveling Superclear Table Top Epoxy base resin and curing agents. M & M Enterprises also carries Supercolors for premium pigment dispersion and Superclear 2.0 Liquid Glass thick for a high gloss that is beautiful on live edge, river and wood tables.

Now that you have your premium products, the prep begins. Prepare your live edge slab by sanding it and removing all dust and debris.

The next step is simply applying epoxy according to manufacturer specifications and here are some additional tips: Work only on a dry surface and spread even, thin layers with a clean cloth rag. Old t-shirts work great. Also allow ample time for each layer to dry and cure in a well-ventilated place that is safe from the weather and free of humidity. Also make sure to keep your new treasure away from any heat sources and out of direct sunlight while you wait.

Next, gently sand and polish your live edge table, beginning with coarse grout sandpiper and switching to fine grit for smoothing.

Then just add your legs to finish your live edge table construction!
